?? problems with new suspension
i have a 94 si and recently just purchased kyb agx's and k sport gt lowering springs. the problem is that the driver side is sitting about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch lower than the passenger side. it is only in the front i have taken the whole suspension out and checked and double checked and can find nothing wrong i have even swapped the front springs(from driver to passenger) and nothing. i was reading about the k sport springs and they say they have a progresive spring rate.... has anyone had this same problem i need help thanks.

try to wait for them to settle if not take it back to where you bought them and ask whats up. or call the place where you ordered them

LOL LOL Buddy I was the same as you when I just got my car lowered!! Same problem, and concerned the same way.
It is normal and nothing you can do about it, unless you have coilovres some people screw down the right side of the car lower to match the left side.
What is happenenin is your car already sits lower on the right, but when you lower it, you can notice it more that's all. Don't worry bro. The wieght of the engine is on the left side.
My girlfreind's 96' EX that's dropped 2" for more than 3 years still sits a little lower on the left side but it's better than my car cause my car was just dropped last year. Over time your springs will " work in" sag" or "settle in" as they call it and the difference should not be that noticiable after time. It's when you first do they drop you notice it immediatly.
Don't worry bro everything's alll good
